Salt Water |
Salt water has surrounded my home |
And it looks like today will be |
The day I pack my belongings |
And leave where I’m from |
Will I ever be back again? |
Salt water, up to my door |
There’s no one else home |
I’m here all alone |
Salt water under the eaves |
There’s no relief |
And I can’t leave |
Heavy air has invaded my past |
And stolen my family |
They’re swirling above me |
High in the mist |
But I don’t know if I’ll see them again |
Salt water, up to my door |
There’s no one else home |
I’m here all alone |
Salt water under the eaves |
There’s no relief |
And I can’t leave |
Poisoned water has threatened my life |
And destroyed my neighborhood |
My friends are all thirsty |
But there’s nothing to drink |
Will it rain again, we can’t tell |
Salt water, up to my door |
There’s no one else home |
I’m here all alone |
Salt water under the eaves |
There’s no relief |
And I can’t leave |
Fire and smoke are killing my soul |
And blocking out all of the light |
I can’t see past all the anger and hate |
How can I live without any faith? |
Salt water, up to my door |
There’s no one else home |
I’m here all alone |
Salt water under the eaves |
There’s no relief |
And I can’t leave |
The road back home has been widened and paved |
And it looks like it’s brand new |
But there’s something we lost |
When we straightened the curves |
Did we bury what once brought us ease? |
Salt water, up to my door |
There’s no one else home |
I’m here all alone |
Salt water under the eaves |
There’s no relief |
And I can’t leave |
Salt water has surrounded my home |
And it looks like today will be |
The day I pack my belongings |
And leave where I’m from |
Will I ever be back again? |
